RecycleMania

Since 2011, Virginia Wesleyan College has participated in RecycleMania, a friendly competition that encourages colleges and universities throughout the United States and Canada to increase their recycling rates and promote waste reduction. Each spring more than 630 schools track recycling efforts for an eight-week period. In 2012, Virginia Wesleyan recycled a total of 26,966 pounds of material as part of the initiative, placing 168th in the Competition Division.

In addition to the competition, VWC committed to the following waste minimization efforts:

Creating an active program to educate faculty, staff and students about waste minimization practices (e.g. incorporating waste minimization information into new employee/new student orientation programs; presenting regularly to campus groups and departments; creation of public displays, etc.)

So, what can YOU do to be part of this mania? The answer is simple: RECYCLE.
